Try: export LESSCLOSE='/usr/bin/lessfile %s %s' export LESSOPEN='/usr/bin/lessfile %s' If you use Emacs, try: M-x customize-option RET auto-compression-mode RET and toggle this option on. Try: aptitude install dwww and read the doc files from your browser. This does appear to do some indexing on the man pages, but I don't think it does a full-text indexing of the other files. If you hear of a tool that does, let us know. I suppose you could let Google spider it ;-) and use site:yourhost in a Google search. -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and MH-E.
